Default What to do with Old Versions?

Serif very (maybe too)regularly produce newer version X4-X5-X6 etc.

What do you all do with the older versions?
It seems a shame to just throw them away.

Uninstall first, then give it away?

Keep them or give them away. Remember, you are not duty bound to upgrade every time a new version comes out!

I've given mine to non-profits and friends, installed it for them and gave each a bit of training for encouragement.

I also give them copies of any files I may have created for them with that or earlier versions.

I understand some folks sell their older versions, they do crop up on ebay, for instance.
